Biography:
I earned my B.M. in Vocal Music Education from the University of Minnesota-Duluth. As a music teacher, I taught choir and general music at all levels, K-12, in Minnesota, Washington, and Ohio.
I returned to school full-time in 2020 and earned my M.Ed. in Higher Education and Student Affairs at the University of South Carolina. While there, I coached students in the areas of leadership, career readiness, graduate and professional school preparation, and sustainability advocacy and outreach. I love helping students identify and plan for their goals while connecting them with helpful opportunities and resources.
In my personal life, I am a mom to two little boys and love getting to play, explore, and learn with them. In whatever free time I have left, I enjoy baking, reading, running, drinking coffee, and watching live sports.
